spent 5-- 5.5 billion extra hours on the road and bought 3 billion gallons of gas and that breaks down to 800 hours wasted. experts say this is a direct result that the economy is rebounding. good news there. the city that has the least congestion, pensacola, florida. that takes only a measly nine minutes to get to where you need to go. >> tara, thank you for the toss. i will take it from here. traffic is moving along in some areas not so well, you know the drill. even though this is a 15 to 20- minute delay, i would still say it's a good excuse there are no

problems on that span. so the total time you are looking at to get into san francisco, live time traffic 30 plus minutes. not that bad for the entire thing. trying to get up to the bay bridge in oakland, there was a crash 880 in san leandro. that's been cleared. very slow. that's also affecting the castro valley commute. if you want to use an alternate, i would say 580 all the way out to 980. it's. right now it's still pretty good. if you are going slow, i would say that's a decent alternate for you. the south bay commute still looks good. it has not become quite as heavy as it can be. you can see for yourself. 280 is looking good through downtown san jose. let's go to steve. mostly cloudy out there. local clouds. kind of lift a little bit over 900, 1,000 feet. probably no drizzle. and then some higher clouds coming in from a weak system. the combination of the two, gonna give us the mostly cloudy

deal. a lot of work, a lot of evidence of momentum on this but still, tori, no legislative language, no bill, no timetable on when we'll vote on something. but certainly the white house trying to do this. >> the president said he's gonna explain how the immigration plan fits into his broader economic agenda because it could play a role with the country and its economic recovery. >> reporter: certainly, a lot of people help it could spar growth. the hearings are not only looking forward as you talk about that issue and on the to -- the path to citizenship and the immigration reform approved by president reagan. a lot of republicans point back and say that a loy you -- that allowed a lot of people to become u.s. citizens. but also promised was much

tougher border measures and a tougher crackdown on those still hiring illegal workers. the republicans say those two things didn't occur and they don't want to accept the same type of deal this time around. >> so the president is meeting with two separate groups. the labor leaders and ceo. i have to mention one of the ceos is marissa meyer from here in the bay area. you think he will be getting two different messages? >> reporter: they are looking for different things. this is the interesting part about the debate. the republican party is not just a sort of block that's against the idea. you have big business. you have large companies like you mentioned, google and others, who would like to bring in more people on certain guest worker kind of visas. you have other big business interests like the farm community, agricultural interest in the state. and then you have -- you put those two together, big business, chamber of commerce

and ag, those are some pretty big constitch whenties offered -- constituencies. that's why you see the administration working to get all of those people together. it's also a reminder on how many different things can be in an immigration reform bill. it's not just the path for citizenship here illegally. >> if you can look in your crystal ball, you said there's no time frame but any guys when we might get some comprehencive immigration -- any guess when we might get some comprehensive immigration reform. >> reporter: well, we'll have to see when the senate judiciary committee starts a bill and then it will take multiple weeks on the floor of the senate. i would be surprised if we have action by summertime.

a lot of it will he depend on the republicans and the house of representatives. just because the democrats want a bill doesn't mean it will get through the congress. >> thank you. you can find a link to jamie dupree's washington, d.c. inviter -- insider blog. pull down the news tab bar at our website for more information. 68% of eligible non- mexicans and imgrants have become citizens. only 36% of eligible mexicans have. the report says reasons given for the mexican immigrants for not applying, include lack of english language skills, not having the $680 -- having the $680 application fee and not passing the census test. there's a proposal to a
